Said Urban Meyer is 9-1 in bowls and Saban barely .500. And "SEC Quarterback play is HOT GARBAGE". This guy is a real peach.

both are good coaches. not sure it matters who the best is. I wouldn't trade for him and im sure Ohio state fans wouldn't trade for saban.

I mean, it's not a ridiculous statement.

I'd take Urbs over Saban.

You mean he is going to say something his first week on the job to stir up a little controversy and get people talking about him... I'm shocked.

Talking heads that never played the game say stupid things

I can't argue with Cowherd on that.

Urban is a big fish in a small pond. He has to be a good coach maybe 5 games out of a 15 game schedule. All the others the team is on cruise control

He's right on the bowls at least. If it's not for the championship you might as well just get hammered and prepare for the worst.

I mean I think Saban is better at building a sustainable program (if you're already big, Meyer would be better by a large margin if both started from scratch- compare Saban at MSU to Meyer well anywhere but especially at Utah) but Cowherd's got a point, I'd much rather have Urban coaching in a big game.

Did he point out their Head to Head matchups? Did he talk about the fact that Saban put Urban in the hospital? Or how about the fact that Saban held Meyer's team at Florida without a TD in 2010 (his 5th year in the program when he would have had no excuse for that 20+ point arse kicking)?

He didn't? Oh, ok.

Saban has an entire roster made up of #1 classes in the country. If he can't win a national title with those classes, then he isn't the best of all time.

And, yes, Meyer is better and will win another national title.

I have a feeling Meyer will go down as the best college football coach ever if he sticks with Ohio State for a long time to come. He doesn't come off as a guy that would like the NFL.

Urban "I got blown the frick out by a Mike Shula coached team" Meyer is the better coach?

Here's some stats for ya.


Nick Saban went to 3 bowls at Michigan State. Lost all 3 of them. That was his first MAJOR (in other words not Arkan...I mean Toledo) program to coach at. Not fricking Bowling Green.

At LSU he won 3 of 5 bowls including a national championship in 2003.

At Alabama, he is 5-3 in bowls including 3 national championships and a massacre of Big 10 (co)champ Michigan State in 2010. Alabama hasn't played a December bowl game since Nick Saban's first year in 2007, which was one of his 5 wins. So in other words, Nick Saban coached in Tier 1 programs ever since he has started coaching.

Not only that, but he took two programs that were eyeball deep in NCAA trouble and program disarray to the very top of the CFB world....4 times. Urban Meyer has inherited a gold mine at every program he has been at except Utah which was a masterpiece of a coaching job.

They're both solid coaches in every sense of the word, but Nick Saban's path was way worse of a grind than Urban Meyer's was. Urban Meyer is an instant success kind of guy. Like a poster said earlier, Nick Saban is definitely more of a longevity kind of guy.

Guys, who do you think is the better coach between Butch Jones and a ham sandwich?

Oh, shite, I'm in the wrong thread, I'm sorry.
